    Spyderco Bushcraft BCUK

    Stupidly sold my second years ago for peanuts. Tony sorted me out recently. In terms of grind and grip, it is my favourite knife for all but full on butchering.

    Weekend sanding

    The cross cut oak one is on the new blade from Brisa. Much finer than I was expecting it will make a fantastic kitchen, butcher or camp cook knife. The Brisa Trapper in D2 at the top is one of my favourite production blades ever and the full tang puuko is a joy in the hand.

Now the garden is turning over (it's turning chilly up here already) the stuff she has made is great. I am liking this planning and storing like we used to...

    Sorry, will measure tonight and get back to you. It is very long in the arms, but it accentuates my paunch. Damn Scandinavians, we need a short stout Welsh brand of the same quality.

    Loch Ericht Wild Camping

    We were there a few weeks ago and the passing places were full for a mile. We went into the (admittedly tiny) car park to turn around and there was a spot. Cam home with ticks though.
